Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to improving the mixing efficiency of an additive in a liquid flowing under pressure through a large diameter conduit.
  • the present invention more particularly relates to mixing systems in which a side stream is diverted from the main liquid flow, an additive mixed with the side stream, and the concentrated mixture injected back into the large diameter conduit.
  • the present invention is applicable to treatment of liquids by the infusion of additives. While the structural components of the invention may be utilized for treating many kinds of liquids, its principal application will be in the field of water treatment where there is substantial volumetric flow. For example, embodiments of the present invention may be utilized in municipal waste water treatment facilities where flow rates are at least 1892.7 litres (500 gallons) per minute, and generally much higher. In such systems, it is desired to achieve effective and efficient blending of the returning side stream into the main flow of liquid. The volumes of water requiring treatment are typically substantial, and reducing or eliminating the amount of time required for any storage of the liquid is desirable.
  • the treatment substances utilized with the present invention may be in the form of a gas, liquid or slurry, where the treatment substance is capable of being mixed with the side stream through a mixing apparatus, such as a venturi mixing injector, chemical mixer, mixing nozzle.
  • a mixing apparatus such as a venturi mixing injector, chemical mixer, mixing nozzle.
  • ozone is a very effective disinfectant chemical which is in gas form which decomposes into molecular oxygen at standard temperature and pressure.
  • ozone may be mixed with the mixing apparatus into the side stream and then infused through nozzles into a large diameter conduit into a mainstream of flowing liquid.
  • the conduit is a large pipe often on the order of 121.92 cm (48 inches) in diameter.
  • the object of present invention is to improve the transfer efficiency of the treatment substance into the flowing stream. Improvements in transfer efficiency will result in reduction of the treatment time required for the flowing stream, which can minimize retaining the water for additional treatment and prevents "over-dosing" the stream in order to be assured of a sufficiency throughout the treated liquid. In other words, improving the mass transfer efficiency may reduce initial capital investment in the system and reduce the operating expense for the system.
  • DE102008008563 (A1 ) discloses a metering device (110) that has a metering module (122) for metering a pollutant-decreasing medium (124).
  • the metering device has a metering pipe (128) flown through by an auxiliary fluid (130).
  • the metering pipe flows at an opening position (132) in a flow pipe (114).
  • Embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus and a method which may be applied to the need described above to improve the transfer efficiency of a treatment substance with a liquid mainstream flowing through a large diameter conduit.
  • a pipe having a cylindrical inner wall having a central axis, wherein a liquid flows in a full pipe flow regime (i.e., a pressurized system) through the pipe.
  • a diversion conduit provides a diversion flow of a portion of the flow of liquid from an upstream location.
  • the diversion conduit diverts the portion of the flow of liquid to outside of the pipe where a treatment substance mixing apparatus mixes a treatment substance with the portion of liquid resulting in a first mixture made up of the originally diverted liquid flow having a relative high concentration of the treatment substance.
  • This first mixture is returned to the pipe via an injection structure which injects the first mixture into the pipe at a downstream location, where the first mixture mixes with the liquid mainstream resulting in a second mixture.
  • Each of the flow vanes extends radially inward from the inner wall of the pipe toward the central axis of the pipe. As explained further below, this plurality of flow vanes configured in the pipe between the upstream location where the diversion conduit takes the portion and the downstream location where the first mixture is infused into the mainstream flow by the injection structure significantly - and unexpectedly - improves the transfer efficiency of the treatment substance into the mainstream flow.
  • the injection structure may comprise any structure which introduces a mixture of a treatment substance and a carrier fluid from the exterior of the pipe into the interior of the pipe, such as various inlet mechanisms known in the art.
  • the known injection structures are nozzles.
  • the injection structure may comprise a number of different configurations of nozzles which extend through the cylindrical wall. These configurations may include, by way of example, single nozzles, a plurality of nozzles in axial alignment along the pipe, a plurality of nozzles in random distribution along the pipe, a pair of opposite facing nozzles on opposite sides of the pipe, and a plurality of pairs of nozzles in opposite facing relation.
  • each nozzle of the plurality of nozzles may receive a substantially equal portion of the first mixture, the nozzles so disposed and arranged as to inject the equal portion of the first mixture into the mainstream flow at the downstream location.
  • Each nozzle of the plurality of nozzles may be spaced apart linearly along a length of the pipe from each adjacent nozzle.
  • the plurality of nozzles may be configured as a plurality of pairs of nozzles, where each pair of nozzles is spaced apart linearly along a length of the pipe from an adjacent pair of nozzles.
  • a pair of nozzles may be disposed such that a first nozzle of the pair and a second nozzle of the pair are installed within a length of the pipe where the first nozzle and the second nozzle are in opposite facing relation as each nozzle injects the first mixture into the flowing stream of the pipe.
  • a booster pump may be hydraulically connected to the diversion conduit, where the booster pump is configured to receive the diversion flow and boost the pressure of the diversion flow.
  • Such an embodiment may further include an aspirating injector which receives the diversion flow from the booster pump and mixes the treatment substance with the diversion flow.
  • embodiments of the present invention provide a wide range of treatment options made possible through the increased transfer efficiencies realized by the utilization of the plurality of flow vanes utilized between the upstream location where the diversion conduit takes the portion and the downstream location where the first mixture is infused into the mainstream flow by the injection structure.
  • an additional structure in the pipe disposed downstream of the injection structure may further increase the transfer efficiency.
  • This structure a flow grid placed in a location downstream of the infusion of the mixture of treatment substance and diverted flow - is a flow grid which is disposed perpendicular to the central axis of the pipe, where the flow grid has an upstream face pointing upstream and an downstream face pointing downstream.
  • the flow grid may be made up of a plurality of intersection grid members.
  • the flow grid may further be configured into a semi-circular shape having a diagonal base member.
  • the flow grid may have a radius of curvature which allows it to be placed within the circle defined by the internal diameter of the pipe, with the circumferential edge of the flow grid abutting the internal circumferential surface of the pipe.
  • a grid member may be disposed within the pipe such that the diagonal base member has a first end adjacent to an approximate 60 degree position (i.e., 2 o'clock) and a second end adjacent to an approximate 240 degree position (i.e., 8 o'clock).
  • a flow grid having a semi-circular shape may be further sectioned into a first half of the semi-circular shape and a second half of the semi-circular shape, where each half has a plurality of intersecting grid members set in a parallel configuration with the diagonal base member.
  • the flow grid has a thickness extending from the upstream face to the downstream face, where the intersecting grid members may extend from the upstream face to the downstream face.
  • the intersecting grid members may be angled with respect to the central axis of the pipe. The inventors herein have found that angling of the grid members further promotes transfer efficiency.
  • the grid members of the first half of the semi-circular shape may be set between the upstream face and the downstream face to form an angle of approximately 10 degrees upward from the central axis.
  • the grid members of the second half of the semi-circular shape may be set between the upstream face and the downstream face to form an angle of approximately 10 degrees downward from the central axis of the pipe.
  • the flow grid utilized in embodiments of the invention may be configured such that the openings defined between the intersecting grid members are either square or rectangular.
  • the size of the openings may also be adjusted to change the transfer characteristics of the treatment substance.
  • One embodiment may have square openings where each opening is 5.08 cm by 5.08 cm (2 inches by 2 inches).
  • the opening may have a minimum height of 2.54 cm (1 inch) and a minimum width of 5.08 cm (2 inches).
  • the pipe will have a diameter typically utilized for municipal operations and have a diameter greater than ten inches.
  • the treatment substance will typically be a gas and, depending upon the application, may be ozone, oxygen, chlorine, and air.
  • Methods of the present invention for increasing the mass transfer of a treatment substance into a liquid flowing through a piping system include the steps of diverting a portion of the liquid flowing through the pipe from a first upstream location, leaving a main stream flow passing through the pipe and through a plurality of vanes disposed circumferentially about an interior wall of the pipe.
  • the diverted liquid is flowed through a treatment mixing apparatus which mixes a treatment substance into the diverted liquid resulting in a mixture. This mixture is injected into the pipe downstream of the mixing vanes.
  • the treatment substance may be a gas such as ozone, oxygen, chlorine or air.
  • the mixture may have a gas liquid ratio of at least 5%.
  • the diverted fluid may comprise 3 percent to 40% of the total liquid flowing through the pipe.
  • Figures 1-3 illustrate a system previously disclosed by one of the inventors here, as set forth in U.S. Patent 7,779,864 , but which has been modified according to the present invention by the addition of flow vanes 100 downstream of diversion conduit 35 but upstream of nozzles 45,46.
  • the '864 patent taught a pipe 20 having a cylindrical wall 21 which formed a flow passage 22 having a central axis 23. End 24 is regarded as an upstream inlet end and end 25 is regarded as a downstream outlet end. Flanges 26 are shown by means of which segments 27 can be installed in the completed pipe.
  • the main flow of liquid in this example water, flows from inlet 24 to outlet 25.
  • pipes of this type operate full, and the stream may flow at axial rates ranging from 22.86 cm (0.75 feet) per second to 152.4 cm (5 feet) per second.
  • these flow rates represent a very substantial flow of water, and injection/infusion to treatment substances must be quick and reliable.

  • Pump 36 draws a diversion stream from the main flow and boosts its pressure. After the pump 36, the diversion stream is directed to the inlet port 37 of an aspirating injector 38.
  • the pressure applied to the diversion stream is sufficient to operate an aspirating injector 38 and to return the diversion stream to the mainstream flow in pipe 20. In most applications, the raise in pressure will be about 2.06 bar (30 psi).
  • Aspirating injector 38 includes a port 39 which receives a proportioned supply of treatment substance from source 40.
  • a regulator valve 41 passes the substance at a controlled pressure to port 39.
  • the treatment substance will be a gas, and may include ozone, oxygen, chlorine and air.
  • a mixture is formed once the diversion stream is infused with the treatment substance, where the mixture comprises a concentrated treatment stream for infusion back into the mainstream flow.
  • the diversion conduit 35 continues from the outlet end 42 of the aspirating injector 38 to at least one nozzle 45 or a pair of nozzles 45, 46 as shown in Figure 2 .

  • a single nozzle 45, a pair of nozzles 45, 46 or a plurality of pairs of nozzles 50, 51, 52 may be used in embodiments of the invention.
